I was in your shoes a little over 3 years ago...SM walked out on troop, saying he couldn't take it any more..I took over and told parents if they wanted their kids to have a troop, they would be expected to assist me in any way possible. The first step was to get trained; Scoutmaster Fundementals, Outdoor training, New Leader, etc...Also YOUTH PROTECTION. Then I looked to the neighboring Cub Pack for help. Now, I have 4 trained assistants, a trained committee, solid patrol leadership as well as an up and coming SPL. The position has gone from a job to enjoyment. Good luck to you, and welc

Help...We are a connecticut troop, planning on going skiing in January. We started planning too late and now cannot find a cabin big enough to fill our needs at a scout camp within a reasonable commute to a ski area. We are looking for western Mass., or the lower Adarondack region of New York. If you have any ideas, please help me.
